    摘要: A high input impedance, low output impedance, temperature-stable tuning voltage interface circuit with substantial ripple rejection and negligible DC offset. The circuit comprises two transistors of opposite conductivity types, the first being coupled through a resistor to a supply voltage and through a temperature-stabilizing, DC-offsetting diode to the output of the second transistor. The rejection of the ripple voltage superimposed on the supply voltage is determined by the ratio of the value of the resistor to the effective resistance of the diode.

    摘要: A tuning voltage circuit for providing a tuning voltage which is corrected by an automatic frequency control error voltage for application to a voltage controlled radio frequency tuning means for a television receiver is shown. The voltage controlled radio frequency tuning means has a non-linear frequency versus tuning voltage characteristic which causes the sensitivity of the tuning means to the error voltage to vary over the frequency range of interest. The tuning voltage circuit includes a high impedance tuning voltage source which provides sensitivity compensation for the automatic frequency control error voltage to compensate for variations of the automatic frequency control pull-in range in the frequency range of interest.

    摘要: A compensated reference voltage source for providing a stable output voltage despite variations in operating voltage. The circuitry includes a series arrangement of a first resistance, a Zener diode, and a second resistance connected between a source of operating voltage and ground. A first transistor has its collector connected to the juncture of the first resistance and the Zener diode, its base connected to the juncture of the Zener diode and the second resistance, and its emitter connected to ground. A second transistor has its base and emitter connected directly to the corresponding electrodes of the first transistor and its collector connected to an output terminal. A third transistor has its collector connected to the source of operating voltage, its emitter connected to the output terminal, and its base connected to the collector of the first transistor. The base-emitter characteristics of the transistors are essentially identical. The voltage across the Zener diode remains constant despite variations in the operating voltage. However, the voltage at the collector of the first transistor varies because of changes in current flow across its base-emitter junction. Because of the interconnections, equal currents flow through each of the transistors. Since the base-emitter characteristics of the transistors are identical, the voltage drops across the base-emitter junctions of the first and third transistors are equal. Thus, the voltage at the output terminal is equal to the voltage across the Zener diode and remains constant despite variations in the operating voltage.

    摘要: Circuitry compensating for inherent nonlinearities in the tuning voltage sensitivity of varactor tuners, thereby providing relatively constant AFC pull-in range throughout the band of operating frequencies, is shown. In both the VHF and UHF bands, the AFC system develops an error correction voltage in proportion to the tuning voltage. With respect to reception of VHF channels, a gain switching circuit operates to reduce the proportion of AFC error correction voltage developed on a High Band VHF channel, thereby compensating for increased tuning voltage sensitivity on High Band VHF. With respect to reception of UHF channels, a tuning voltage sensing circuit operates to effect an error correction voltage that is a greater proportion of the tuning voltage when the tuning voltage is above a pre-determined value corresponding to approximately channel 60.
